RESOURCES AND RESEARCH

CITATIONS

Canadian Customers:
Below are three excellent new studies and a link to an in-depth summary using IBDoc^® were published in recent months:

IBDoc^®:
Walsh et al.: This is the first study that correlates fCAL values generated by patients using IBDoc^® to endoscopic and histologic clinical assessments. The correlation coefficient between IBDoc^® and histology (Nancy) was found to be 0.88 and at a cut-off 187 µg/g, sensitivity and negative predictive value was 100%.

Moore et al.: This study performed in three Canadian centers showed a very good correlation between the IBDoc^® results generated by patients and the laboratory based BÜHLMANN fCAL^® ELISA as well as high usability scores for the home test.

Wei et al.: This study in a Taiwanese IBD population proved very good correlation between the IBDoc^® results generated by patients and the laboratory Quantum Blue^® fCAL as well as a high usability score for the home test. A large majority of patients preferred the home-test over the laboratory method or endoscopy.

TECHNICAL NEWS

Basophils Are Still Alive

Quality Assay & Sample Stability for Viable Basophils

Basophil Activation Testing (often referred to as BAT) is a flow-cytometry-based functional assay that assesses the degree of cell activation after exposure to stimuli.

Do you know which BAT application makes sense for your lab? Are you thinking about implementing an allergy BAT? Or are you planning on using basophils as the new biomarker in your research project?

Learn more about BAT and how a quality assay and sample stability is key for viable basophils.

BÜHLMANN HIGHLIGHTS

Flow CAST^® is intended for the determination of basophil activation in whole blood samples by flow cytometry. Thanks to its easy protocol and smart marker combination, the first results can be obtained in under an hour which provides perfect conditions for laboratories. Check out some interesting highlights for the Flow CAST^® assay including interesting videos, eBooks, and more.
